Which excerpt from The Great Gatsby is the best example of foreshadowing?

A.) . . . he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Involuntarily I glanced seaward — and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away, that might have been the end of a dock. When I looked once more for Gatsby he had vanished,
and I was alone again in the unquiet darkness.

B.) Of course I knew what they were referring to, but I wasn’t even vaguely engaged. The fact that gossip had published the banns was one of the reasons I had come East. You can’t stop going with an old friend on account of rumors, and on the other hand I had no intention of being rumored into marriage.

C.) I said lightly that I had heard nothing at all, and a few minutes later I got up to go home. They came to the door with me and stood side by side in a cheerful square of light. As I started my motor Daisy peremptorily called: “Wait!”

D.) “Her family is one aunt about a thousand years old. Besides, Nick’s going to look after her, aren’t you, Nick? She’s going to spend lots of week-ends out here this summer. I think the home influence will be very good for her.”

Answer 1

A - . . . he stretched out his arms toward the dark water in a curious way, and, far as I was from him, I could have sworn he was trembling. Involuntarily I glanced seaward — and distinguished nothing except a single green light, minute and far away, that might have been the end of a dock. When I looked once more for Gatsby he had vanished, and I was alone again in the unquiet darkness.

Foreshadowing uses specific words or phrases to hint at something that will occur later on in the story.

I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

A

Explanation: Dear Ms. Dodge:

This is with reference to my daughter Layla Quinto, who is your student in Grade 2 at The Pine School. After 3 hours of struggling with the mathematics homework that was given to her (due tomorrow morning), she finally gave up, saying that she did not understand triple addition.

As I went through her homework questions, I did figure out a way to help her understand the concept, however, I did not want to go against your school rules which state that parents should not introduce new concepts at home, because the process ends up in confusing the student. Layla is quite upset at not being able to complete her homework but I assured her that you will help her out during class.

I am confident that Layla will be able to grasp this tricky concept if you go through it with her a few times. I apologize for her not being able to complete her homework this time and hope that a similar situation does not transpire again.

Thank you for understanding Layla’s predicament (and mine as a parent).

Sincerely,

A rock falls over a waterfall as shown in the diagram. At which point does the rock have the most potential energy? D 4 C 3 B2 A 1

Answers

Answer:

A 1

Explanation:

Don't take my word for it because you did not include a photo of the diagram so therefore, I am answering this somewhat blindly with only the assistance of my prior knowledge. With this established, I believe that the answer is A 1 because potential energy is stored energy. Potential energy occurs in an object when it is not moving, in simple terms.

If 1 is the first stage of the rock over the waterfall, I would assume that it is at the very start of the process, perhaps beofore it has fallen over the waterfall? If this is the case, then the first stage is the stage with the most potential energy because the rock is still, containing stored energy.

The Point 1 is the point at which the rock will have the most potential energy when its falls over a waterfall.

What is a Potential energy?

A potential energy means a energy generated by an object because of its position relative to other objects.

Usually, these energy is highesr when the most energy is store dwhich is where the object reaches its highest point in the air before falling.

Therefore, the Option A is correct

What does the interjection do in this passage?

Answers

Answer:

A) the word yuck conveys disgust

Jason and Susie walked very quickly to the old ampitheater, panting for breath. "Tell me again why we are hurrying so fast?" Susie gasped as she asked the question. They had run at least four blocks already and she was extremely out of breath.

"My grandpa said to meet him here at exactly 3:00 to go through the old maze. And we have to go through the maze- it's for that weird assignment Mrs. Hicks gave us."

Susie rolled her eyes. There had been a lot of confused students when strange Mrs. Hicks gave out her last big project description. They had each been assigned to go through the town's maze. No other instructions were given. Just 'Go through the maze by the end of the semester." Below the very unhelpful instructions was a list of contact people who could assist everyone in getting started.

The maze had been designed ages ago- before the dinosaurs died out, probably- in a feeble attempt to attract tourists. And it worked- for about thirty years. Of course, all that ended about fifty years ago. It was no surprise that Jason's grandpa was one of the people on the contact list. Everyone on the list was old enough to be the students' grandparents. Some were even old enough to be their great-grandparents.

When they finally reached the base of the ampitheater, which was also the main entrance to the maze, there was no one there waiting for them. "Nuts!"Jason cried out. "We've missed him! It's 3:15."

"We aren't THAT late," Susie muttered. Jason nodded his head in agreement. But his grandpa prided himself on punctuality. If he said he was going in the maze at 3:00, he was going in at 3:00 sharp whether he had his tourists in tow or not. "So we have to make another appointment with your grandpa?" Again, Jason nodded, grimacing.

That's when he spotted the paper stuck to the memos sign at the edge of the ampitheater. It said 'Jason' on the front of it, and he recognized his grandfather's handwriting.

"Wait, maybe not!" he said, hopefully. He yanked the paper down and unfolded it. But his hope quickly drained and confusion replaced it.



He read aloud, "Jason, I am heading into the maze. Here is the key to get in."

"I don't see a key," Susie interrupted.

"That's because there isn't one." Jason motioned for her to look at the paper, then continued reading. "I couldn't wait so I went in without you too bad you were late."

"So.... what's the key?" He looked at Susan for help. She shrugged.

"Wait, here's a lock on the gate of the maze," she said. "It has a combination lock."

"So, that weird sentence is a clue to the combination? We were supposed to be here at 3:00. Is it 300?"

"No, it's letters. Let's see... Six letters."

Remark the MAIN IDEA of the history:
An old man lived in the village. The whole village was tired
of him; he was always gloomy, he constantly complained and was
always in a bad mood. The longer he lived, the viler he became
and more poisonous were his words. People did their best to avoid
him because his misfortune was contagious. He created the
feeling of unhappiness in others.
But one day, when he turned eighty, an incredible thing
happened. Instantly everyone started hearing the rumor: "The old
man is happy today, he doesn't complain about anything, smiles,
and even his face is freshened up." The whole village gathered
around the man and asked him, "What happened to you?"
The old man replied, "Nothing special. Eighty years I've
been chasing happiness and it was useless. And then I decided to
live without happiness and just enjoy life. That's why I'm happy
now."
Moral of the story: Don't chase happiness. Enjoy your life.

F.
Lions roar whenever there are storms.

Answers

Answer:

C. It is a bad storm outside.

E. They are safe from the storm inside.

Explanation:

Outside there isn't actually a roaring lion, this is a metaphor. The wind is like a roaring lion, meaning the wind is very strong. But inside is like a purring kitten. It's not actually a kitten, but it means that the inside is safe and calm.

If you can choose two it is
C
And
E
Otherwise it would just be E because she wants to show them that although it is a bad storm outside it is warm and cozy on the inside.
